Fall Leaf Quilt Pattern Writing Process

Pattern Writing Process | Fall Leaf Quilt Pattern

You may think I have been on vacation, due to the lack of posting, not the case. I have been writing two new patterns. The quilts have been done for awhile.

I create, make scatter notes, then I have to recreate, to write the pattern. Not the best process. Future goal is to be more organized.

The border directions were a challenge to write. I kept asking myself, what was I thinking, when I decided, Squares On Point. The directions include the option to sub out the Squares On Point for a regular border.

My patterns include a layout page, so you visually see, where everything goes, plus step by step written instructions.

Fall Leaf Quilt Pattern

As the title suggest this is the Fall Leaf Quilt pattern. Notice the name of the leaves are listed at the bottom of the page in the middle.

These close ups, show the leaf veins are the background fabric showing through.

Fabric requirements for Fall Quilt

This is the back of the pattern. The fabric requirements are detailed, so you know how allowances have been calculated to make alternative fabric and border choices. This is my working copy, a bit wrinkled. Picking up the crisp, new patterns at the printers tomorrow.

Innovative Appliqué Instructions

The inside of the cover, contains Innovative Appliqué instructions in pictures.

Innovative Appliqué means you do not trace anything.

You copy the pattern to products that save time and increase accuracy. 

Innovative Appliqué Patterns

Pattern A, copy to June Tailor's Perfect Piecing to create an overlay.

No tracing to vinyl or guessing where the appliqué pieces go.

Innovative Appliqué Patterns

Pattern B, all the appliqué shapes are separated. (Yes, I did that for you)

Pattern B, copy to heavy weight freezer paper sheets.

Cut the shapes out. Instant templates.

Innovative Appliqué uses freezer paper templates on the right side of the fabric.

You will not have to cut freezer paper out of the back of your project.

Bright Leaf Pattern

I did mention I have been working on two patterns. This is a shot of the other leaf pattern. This is called Bright Leaf Pattern.

There are eight leaves in this pattern: Yellow Poplar, Aspen, White Oak, Northern Red Oak, English Oak, Elm and Sweetgum.

This is at the printers in the proofing stage. It will be released in the next week or two. I am thinking of providing a combination package to buy both Fall and Bright leaf patterns. Do you like that idea?

Close up of the Bright Leaf Quilt Pattern

Here is a close up of the Bright Leaf Pattern.

Innovative Appliqué instructions include a magical easy trapunto technique that adds dimension to your appliqué.

Any techniques I mention are included in the directions on the inside cover.

Buckeye Leaf Quilt Wall Hanging

The Buckeye Leaf, done as a wall hanging.

I graduate from The Ohio State University. I am not a football fan (gasp). I am a quilting fan, so I enjoyed making this.

I made this for a Kids N Kamp benefit auction. The auction was held at the OSU stadium. Brutus Buckeye and OSU cheerleaders were in attendance, so spirits were running high. A number of fans wanted it, which drove the price to $500. 

Canadian Leaf Quilt Pattern

A number of Canadian quilt shop owners attend Quilt Market in Pittsburgh. It is the closest Quilt Market to Canada. A number of Canadians requested I do a Canadian Maple Leaf. Individual leaf patterns are available as PDF's for $5.00.

This is the season for leaves. Enjoy.

Hi everyone I am Emily Naomi wanna give a big thanks to this wonderful psychic for bringing my husband back to me.. I never really believed in magic spells or anything spiritual but a trusted friend opened my eyes to the truth about life. My marriage was heading to divorce a few months ago. I was so confused and devastated with no clue or help on how to prevent it, till I was introduced to this psychic Priest Ray that did a love spell and broke every spiritual distraction from my marriage. A day later my husband started showing me love and care even better than it used to be, he’s ready to talk things through and find ways for us to stay happy. It’s such a miracle that my marriage can be saved so quickly without stress. You can also contact him for help by email psychicspellshrine@gmail.com or you can also visit his website: https://psychicspellshrine.wixsite.com/my-site
